  2. Iterative methods
    1. Gauss Jacobi

Gauss Elimination Analysis (cont.)#

A time analysis of the algorithm for different size of inputs is shown below:

Algorithm n = 1000 n = 10000
Elimination 0.7 s 11 min
Back substitution 0.001 s 0.1 s

Corollary#

Doolittle L
Crout Method U
Cholesky's Method \(U = L^T\) when A is symmetric and positive definite
- A is written as \(A = U^T U\). Hence we may have \(U^T Ux = b\)

Iterative methods#

Gauss Jacobi#

  1. Computations for each element can be done in parallel since each step independent
  2. Convergence is generally faster than Jacobi method

Gauss Seidel#

  1. The gauss seidel method can be applied to any matrix with non zero elements on diagonal, but convergence is not guaranteed
  2. Computations for each element cannot be done in parallel since each step depends on the previous calculation
  3. Convergence is generally faster than Jacobi method
